**★★★★★ — Ferrer Design Studio, May 2021**

> I worked with the INS team for a year on a triplex in NYC. The team is amazing. Attention to detail. Great communication between client, designer and contractor, always. Always ready and willing to help with anything that would have led to the fulfillment of the project. The crew was always super careful and experienced. Everyone at INS was a pleasure to work with and definitely  would trust them to carry out a project anytime.

**★★★★★ — megan3421, May 2021**

> Working with INS was amazing. Their team is professional, competent and so nice to work with! I would recommend them for any project.

**★★★★★ — Jake Nelson, Jan. 2020**

> We have worked with INS Contractors on our 7500 SF home. The project took 12 month and they where able to complete the job within the original schedule provided by INS. They have worked very well with our interior design firm. Ivan and Felix where the project managers on our project and it was really great experience working with them, the communication was great and they are very knowledgeable. Also we had a great site foreman on our project who was running the project from start to finish. We will definitely work with INS on our other projects. Highly recommended!

**★★★★★ — Kristina Stewart, Sept. 2019**

> Ivan and the INS team did an incredible job renovating our NYC apartment.  They were professional, easy to work with and time conscious.  The work they did was impeccable!  We could not be happier that we hired them and would highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Bradford Emilo, Sept. 2019**

> We had a pleasure working with INS Contractors on our Park avenue pre war apartment renovation. We had 4 contractors pricing our renovation and there where many design changes during the bidding process. At the end of the process we have decided to go with INS Contractors - Felix and Ivan, they where honest, responsive and where able to with with our Architect very well. The project was completed based on the original project schedule that they have provided which was the most important for us as we had to move out from our previous apartment, also most important the project was done within the budget. Highly recommended.

**★★★★★ — Lev, Aug. 2019**

> My wife and I purchased a condo in NYC and had only 6 months to renovate (combination of 3 apartments). This was our first renovation project and we had a lot of questions and concerns about contractors in NYC. After interviewing many contractors, my wife and I decided to go with INS Contractors for our renovations. INS and their team did what they said they would do. They also would give suggestions and come up with ways to save costs during the various changes to the work that we proposed. We could tell everyone truly liked their profession and were very skilled. Lastly they worked very well with our Interior Design team. Thank you INS and team! Work very well done, great project!

**★★★★★ — Peter Paul, March 2019**

> We recently completed a 3800 square feet loft renovation in Tribeca. My overall experience with INS Contractors was very good. We didn't have previous experience renovating such a large space and were very concerned to start. INS contractors made us feel very comfortable, everything was explained patiently and we were able to make decisions swiftly. The only reason I am writing this review is becomes everyone told us that we will definitely go over budget, but INS Contractors gave us the support we needed and actually came in within the budget. We are very happy in our new home and definethey recommend INS Contractors.

**★★★★★ — Valerie V, Sept. 2018**

> My husband and i couldn’t be happier with Ivan and the whole team at INS Contractors. They did a fantastic job on the renovation of our park avenue apartment. They take pride in their work are incredibly responsive and trustworthy. I would recommend them without any reservation!

**★★★★★ — Paul C, Sept. 2018**

> I had a wonderful experience working with INS Contractors on my nyc apartment. They where very easy to work with, very attentive to all my needs. They have performed an outstanding job. Thanks INS!

**★★★★★ — Josephine Marino, June 2017**

> We hired INS Contractors for a remodeling project at our home last year. We had such a great experience and we respect their firm so much that we have recently hired them to renovate our Park Avenue apartment. From the first day we talked with them about the project, they were straight forward and professional. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality, detailed, high end contractor.

**★★★★★ — Amy Fritz, June 2017**

> INS was fantastic to work with. I needed the work to be of the highest quality but done quickly. They were friendly, efficient, highly skilled and best of all, great communicators. The job was done impeccably, on time and on budget. I cannot recommend them more highly.
